Trusted Seattle Movers for Apartments, Houses & Offices
Moving in Seattle means hills, narrow streets, tight parking, and buildings with rules for everything from elevator time to loading docks. If you’re trying to find movers in Seattle who plan for all of it, Puget Sound Moving has an office downtown at 1420 5th Ave, in the heart of the city.
Every crew we send is made up of full-time, background-checked Puget Sound Moving employees. We never use day laborers or subcontractors, and the office that builds your estimate is the same one that schedules your crew and answers when you call.
Our Seattle moving services cover studios in Capitol Hill, family homes in Ballard and West Seattle, and offices downtown and in South Lake Union: local moving, long distance relocation, apartment and condo moves, residential moves, and commercial movers, plus packing, storage, and help for seniors and antiques.
Here’s why customers choose our moving company:
- Our own crews: every mover is a full-time, background-checked employee. No subcontractors or day laborers.
- 7-day availability: weekday and weekend moves, with short-notice dates often open.

Real Seattle Moves, Real Customers
Straight from this office’s Google reviews, with the photos customers posted.
Placed exactly right “I had a great experience with Puget Sound Moving. The team was professional, efficient, and handled my belongings with care from start to finish. They showed up on time, communicated clearly throughout the process, and made what could have been a stressful move feel smooth and organized. Nothing was damaged, and they went above and beyond to make sure everything was placed exactly where I wanted it.”
Endless stairs “Wonderful people! The packers came yesterday and were so sweet and efficient. And the movers today have kept it going and never once complained about the difficult parking at our house and that never-ending amount of stairs (see pic)!!! They have been so careful with our new paint job in the interior. So nice and hardworking!! I would recommend them to anyone! They’re the best movers we have ever had!!”
Bed taken apart & rebuilt “Puget Sound Moving has been a great help with our move to our house! They’re efficient, quick, helpful, and broke down the bed frame and set it back up for you. They’re able to move shelves, entertainment stands, heavy boxes, mattresses, monitors, TVs, lamps. You name it. Ozzy and his crew have been respectful, positive, flexible, adaptable and professional.”
Moving in Seattle: What Our Movers Plan For
Reserving curb space for the truck
On many city blocks, the only way to guarantee a spot for a moving truck is a city Temporary No Parking Zone, with no-parking easels placed about 72 hours ahead. We’ll tell you if your street needs one and how to set it up.
Downtown and South Lake Union towers
High-rises usually need an elevator reservation, a dock time, and a certificate of insurance. Send us your building’s move-in packet and we’ll coordinate with your property manager.
Hills, stairs and walk-ups
Queen Anne, Capitol Hill, and Magnolia mean steep streets, long front stairs, and older walk-ups without elevators. We plan the carry and send the right number of movers so the stairs don’t drag out the day.
Bridges, I-5 and SR 99
Getting across the Ship Canal or to West Seattle can take longer than the loading. We time start times and routes to avoid the worst of rush hour, which matters on an hourly move.
Need a Seattle Moving Company on Short Notice?
Leases end early and closing dates move. Call our office and a real person answers, the same team that schedules your crew. Short-notice dates are often open, even within the same week.
With offices in Seattle, Bellevue, Tukwila, Kent, and Tacoma, we handle moves across the city, around the Puget Sound region, across Washington, and out of state.

Team was great! Showed up on time, were completely professional, put my mind at rest and did not complain once when they found out they had to move stuff into an older West Seattle home on a hill with narrow steps. Will definitely use this company again!
Puget Sound Moving is the most reliable, prompt, and professional moving company I’ve worked with. We have multiple very heavy and fragile antique pieces that they’ve moved, handled, and packed with a lot of care. Used them for moving twice and each time have had a very positive experience. Could not recommend them more! …
Really happy with Puget Sound Moving. Ramon and David were fantastic. They communicated well throughout the move, took great care of my belongings, and were friendly, professional, and incredibly hardworking. The whole process was smoother than I expected, and they made a stressful moving day much easier. I’d definitely use them again.
I had a fantastic experience with Puget Sound Moving, from the quote to the loading to delivery. I was hesitant to use professional movers, as this was a big expensive to me out of state move, but they were worth every penny. …
These folks really know what they’re doing. They have lots of experience and I swear they achieved the impossible a few times. We moved a 2 bedroom apartment with narrow openings and stairs and these guys handled it all with grace. Highly recommend this group for your moving needs.
Best Movers and Moving company!! We’ve moved over a dozen times over the last 20 years or so and this is by far the absolute Best Moving company I’ve ever used. Highly recommend!! …
Frequently Asked Questions About Moving in Seattle
Where is your Seattle office?
Our Seattle office is at 1420 5th Ave, Ste 2260, Seattle, WA 98101. Call (206) 558-2910 to talk to the team that schedules your move.
Do I need a parking permit for the moving truck?
Sometimes. If your block has limited parking, you can reserve curb space with a City of Seattle Temporary No Parking Zone. The no-parking easels should go up about 72 hours before the move. We’ll let you know if your street needs one.
Can you work with my building’s elevator and insurance requirements?
Yes. Send us your building’s move-in packet and we’ll provide the certificate of insurance your property manager needs, then plan the crew around your elevator and dock time.
Do you charge extra for stairs?
No. There are no stair fees, elevator fees, or fuel surcharges. Stairs only affect how long the move takes, and we build that into your estimate.
How far ahead should I book movers in Seattle?
Two to four weeks is ideal, especially for weekends and the end of the month, when most leases in the city turn over. Short-notice moves are often possible.
Do you offer storage?
Yes. Short- and long-term storage for moves where your new place isn’t ready yet, with delivery whenever you are.
